Success Corporation has launched an official website for Umihara Kawase Fresh! – which launches in 2019.

Along with the site’s debut are new details about the upcoming Metroidvania title. For starters, below are two new gameplay previews featuring the game’s tutorial and early stages.

The website also provides our first look into the game’s story and setting. Check out a translation below, courtesy of Gematsu:

Story

Kawase is a wandering chef in the magical world of Michelana. This time she ended up in a remote town called “Kingness,” where she starts working for a hamburger restaurant called “Tadaima Tavern.”

For the time being, Umihara Kawase seems set on helping out Tadaima Tavern. Why? Because Kingness is the spitting image of a town that always appears in her dreams…

There are mysterious things for sure. But since talking about them might make people look at her funny, it seems like she will keep them to herself.

World: The Surface

The area where Tadaima Tavern is located. All sorts of people live here. If you head to the sky, there are gates protected by guards.

Finally, the site lays out release plans for the game. In particular, the game will launch digitally and physically for 5,800 yen in Japan – with the the physical version getting the below box-art.

It definitely feels like Umihara Kawase is making a grand return this time! We’ll report back when we receive more details about the game’s exact release date.
